"A DNA Mutation Is Always Harmful"
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
A DNA mutation's effect ranges from harmful through neutral to occasionally beneficial, since silent mutations change nothing and many missense changes barely affect function.
Show
A silent mutation leaves a protein's sequence unchanged, while a rare beneficial mutation can improve its function.
Watch for
Mutations are raw material evolution acts on precisely because their effects vary — treating every mutation as harmful ignores this range.
